How do you get the brakes to adjust correctly,every time we get them tight enough to stop the tires then they stick/won't release enough to not rub?

Milissa, I was not able to adjust the brakes at all, so I ended up taking it to a bike shop to have all that done, cost me $50 for a $90 scooter! I consider myself very handy but was not able to do it myself.

I was only able to get the brakes to slow it down; not a big deal for our use; seems like the pads are too slick but haven't gotten around to doing anything about it

You feather the trigger to stop well before bolt/nut is tight: should be less than hand tight at this point. Then use torque wrench. At least this is how we use it on our car lug bolts. Given the torque spec on this unit, you definitely don't want to end up over-torqueing the bolt/nut.

Not sure, but it sounds like cable needs to be shortened slightly. This is usually done by adjusting the fittings where the cable attaches to the brake handle.

Hi, I held mine by the wheel tightly and loosely gripped the body and mine slipped right apart. Try twisting it first to get it loose. Thanks!

For me, improper adjustment was the cause. I watched a few YouTube videos, and adjusted them myself. Problem solved. A bike shop can do it for you if your not a DIYr.

I'm not exactly really technical but you put the ring in the groves of the plastic tabs, making sure that the dip in the wire and the dip in the plastic for the tire pressure release are aligned. Hope this helps.

Make sure all the tires are filled to the correct pressure as written on the tire. If this doesn't fix the prob I would contact baby jogger.

improper inflation..check what is written on the sidewall. wrong tire size for rim.....rim bent, or wrong size tube. ????? Never had it happen

If you pull down on the brakes, they will lock in place. I hope that helps!

sounds like the push pull thingy on the bottom needs to be reset. the part im talking about is the thing that contacts the stop ramp and stops the wheels from turning.

You could try checking the tension using the instructions in the manual. If it's too loose it will come off.

The rubber on the wheels should be secured properly with glue. What I did was to replace the rubber with the inner tube of bicycle tyres cut to fit and glue on with super glue. Hope that will solve your problem.

try pushing the wheels in tighter; they're supposed to snap in. you need to use some strength. put some elbow grease into it man.

Lube the threads and work it a little. Mine was the same and it tightened right up. Works fine now.

I wish I had a simple solution for you, but I can't seem to get mine to stay either. But I'm thinking I may go buy a cheap pair of shoes and gorilla glue the damn things to the pedals.

I could not find a way to "stretch" the clips. additionally, be sure that the clips do not interfere with the movement of your front tire.

No. One sets the brakes with gentle downward pressure on the brake handles. Then, one releases the brakes by gentle upward pressure on the brake handle. The release is a little like a squeeze, but only when releasing the brake.
